This serviced 1966 Seiko Seikomatic-R Ref. 8325-8000 represents a landmark chapter in mid-1960s Japanese horology, celebrated as one of Seiko's most sophisticated high-jewel dress watches. It is powered by the ultra-refined 39-jewel Caliber 8325 automatic movement, engineered to deliver remarkable mechanical smoothness, precision, and longevity under Seiko's "R" (Refined) series. Following a full mechanical service, it runs smoothly and operates reliably for regular wear.
The hallmark of this timepiece is its factory-original silver sunburst dial, featuring applied Seiko branding, crisp multi-faceted indices, and balanced hands. The ultra-clean, minimalist layout preserves its authentic 1960s executive charm with high-contrast legibility.
The 35mm stainless steel case remains in very good condition, retaining its sharp factory lines, classic proportions, and original signed crown positioned at 3 o'clock. The watch head maintains its authentic mid-century character and original components. It comes paired with a high-quality replacement leather strap.
A coveted high-jewel 8325 reference that captures Seiko's golden era of mechanical refinement just prior to the high-beat era, offering exceptional historical importance and timeless style.
